Looks like some historians were right & JFK had no real interest in space. It was all politics. I note with interest the way NASA's finest administrator, James Webb, stood up to JFK pushing for generic space capabilities vs. the strictly beat the Russians Apollo fly and forget approach. What a contrast to Goldin the spineless suckup and public hypocrite.
